Lord Accord (G)
[BT]
Showed a willing attitude when resuming winning ways at Fontwell in October. Backed up that effort when second in Berkshire National at Ascot (29.3f) prior to finding Kim Muir at Cheltenham too competitive.

New Order (G)
[T]
C&D winner who found his good run of form coming to a halt when a well-beaten third of 8 in Grimthorpe Chase (Handicap) at Doncaster (26f, soft, 7/2) on latest outing. Type to bounce back quickly.

David Bass | C E Longsdon | 8 | 75.3 kg |

The Famous Five (G)
[P]
Returned to form in first-time cheekpieces back over fences when third in 8-runner handicap at Wincanton (25.1f, good to soft) on most recent outing. Remains on last winning mark, so obvious player if turning up here in similar form.

Imperial Alex (G)
[P]
In good form last summer, resuming winning ways at Perth June. Struggled at Cheltenham in November but should be sharper for his recent outing at Sandown.

Yes Day (G)
[P]
Scored readily over fences at Hereford and Exeter last spring. Mixed record since, however, running below form in first-time cheekpieces at Sandown on most recent outing.

Pilsdon Pen (G)
[PT]
Low-mileage 9-y-o who looked better than ever when scoring for the third time over fences at Wincanton on return. Heavy defeats next 3 outings but did take a step back in the right direction in a first-time tongue strap when second in 5-ru…

Get Up Mush (G)
FAV
Took really well to fences in 2024, winning 3 times, but hasn't fired in 4 runs this season. Enough to prove despite tumbling mark.

Fever Dream (G)
[T]
Ran up to his best after 5 months off when second of 8 in handicap chase at Kempton (24f, good) 12 days ago, despite the test looking on the sharp side. Must be taken seriously from a 1 lb higher mark.
